New records of freshwater snails of the genus Bythinella Moquin-Tandon from Montenegro are presented. Bythinella dispersa, 1973 and B. luteola Radoman, 1976 are recognized and defined as separate species; B. taraensis n. sp., which lives partially sympatric with B. dispersa in the canyon of the River Tara, is described as new. All Bythinella spp. in Montengro inhabit the Dinaric part of the Black Sea drainage area, while it is practically absent from the Adriatic drainage area
